get a old skool American muscle nova.. gas sucks but if your tired of paying for higher gas why do you want faster? get your pilot licenses and fly a jet

Hmm, I suggest you keep the SC as DD and save up for a project car. Honestly buy inexpensive car cash and no payments. 90s 3-series or Miatas do very well in the handling department. You can always do a Monster Miata build (5.0 motor stang swap in the Miata)

i wouldn't even consider the e36 unless you have easy access to another car.
i'd be caught up between a legacy, nb/na miata, or an s2k if i had to replace my dd.

S2Ks get broken into often because of the seats.

If you drive a Miata you don't need your *********. Monster Miata or not.
Then again... Yea. get a Miata!

I've had 3 SC's and a few GS's.. After selling my last boosted SC, i picked up a Mint condition 92 Supra turbo and a GS300 Sport Design, that way i can have the best of both worlds

of course now i want something that gets 30+MPG lol

I've decided to just go with the 04-05 STi since its a newer year, and plus I always wanted one for a DD

E30 are not my style i like the e36 more.

akapaco: the 2nd gen supras are not really my style i saw the interior of it and just i wish i could two cars but right now its not ideal.
